Abstract

Disclosed herein is an Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) termed the Leaschauer Engine (LE). The Leaschauer Engine (LE) is a single or multiple step compression cycle ICE machine, employing the Pressure/Heat Detonation Principle (Diesel Principle). The Leaschauer Engine employs extreme combustion pressure to achieve high combustion efficiency operation without risking a pre-detonation condition.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
With this in mind, I claim: 
     
       1. An apparatus comprising:
 an internal combustion engine designed to provide a Post (compression) Sequenced Fuel Injection (Post SFI) Leaschauer Combustion Process (LCP), said internal combustion engine including: 
 a main piston housed in a main cylinder; 
 a main axle shaft; 
 said apparatus configured to enable air to fill said main cylinder prior to compression of said main cylinder; 
 means for providing Specific Extreme Air Pressure (EAP) compressed air in said cylinder housing said main piston; 
 means for providing Processed Pre-Mist Fuel (PMF); 
 means for injecting the processed pre-mist fuel into the specific Extreme Air Pressure (EAP) compressed air in said main cylinder during a restricted defined window close to UDP of the main cylinder, where pressure and heat are at peak values, with a strictly defined phase; 
 whereby said fuel injection moment is accurately controlled and timed to provide Post SFI and to thereby enable extreme high compression combustion (Extreme Pressure Detonation EPD) without risk of pre-detonation; and 
 wherein said engine is enabled to utilize low-octane fuel without pre-detonation. 
 
     
     
       2. The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein said means for injecting the processed pre-mist fuel (PMF) into the compressed air (specific Extreme Air Pressure EAP) during a restricted defined window close to UDP of the main cylinder, with a strictly defined phase, is a synchronized fuel distributor (SFD) injector, said SFD injector having a main SFD rotor shaft synchronized to said main axle shaft with a 2:1 gearing ratio. 
     
     
       3. The apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein said restricted defined window close to UDP of the main cylinder, is less than 30 out of 360 degrees rotation of said main SFD rotor shaft. 
     
     
       4. The apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein said restricted defined window close to UDP of the main cylinder, is less than 3 out of 360 degrees rotation of said main SFD rotor shaft. 
     
     
       5. The apparatus of  claim 2 , where said strictly defined phase is injecting PMF into EAP beginning in the range between 15 degrees rotation of said main SFD rotor shaft before UDP to 15 degrees rotation of said main SFD rotor shaft after UDP. 
     
     
       6. The apparatus of  claim 2 , where said strictly defined phase is injecting PMF into EAP beginning in the range between 1 and 6 degrees rotation of said main SFD rotor shaft before UDP. 
     
     
       7. The apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein said SFD injector includes;
 a circular geometric shaped injector valve; 
 a gearing mechanism which synchronizes the injector circular valve to said main axle shaft with a 2:1 gearing ratio. 
 
     
     
       8. The apparatus of  claim 7 , wherein;
 said circular geometric shaped injector is comprised of a stator housing containing a circular rotating rotor; 
 the relative position of the circular rotor within the stator housing determines whether a rotor distributing window is aligned with a stator distributing window to enable/disable flow of high pressure fuel through said circular valve of said injector; and 
 said SFD injector circular valve is connected to a main external SFD rotor shaft. 
 
     
     
       9. The apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein said SFD injector is designed to inject high pressure fuel mist supplied by an external pump into extreme compressed air pressure in the cylinder with enough force to propel the mist into highly pressurized compressed air in the cylinder. 
     
     
       10. The apparatus of  claim 1 , including a single small size piston, the small sized piston being able to reduce mechanically high tension and ease high force applied on piston, rods and crankshaft due to the extreme pressure and decrease of air volume due to the extreme compressed air within said cylinder. 
     
     
       11. The apparatus of  claim 1 , including a first stage turbocharger compressor coupled with a single small cylinder. 
     
     
       12. The apparatus of  claim 1 , including a small cylinder which is capable of compressing air within it into a very small geometric area to achieve extreme high pressures. 
     
     
       13. The apparatus of  claim 1 , including a large primary cylinder coupled to a secondary small cylinder, wherein the large cylinder is used as a pre-compression stage, and the secondary small cylinder deals with tremendous pressure, extreme mechanical forces, and volume decrease due to the extreme pressure. 
     
     
       14. A compression process for an internal combustion engine comprising the steps of:
 compressing air to provide Specific Extreme Air Pressure (EAP) compressed air in a main cylinder housing a main piston; 
 providing processed pre-mist fuel; 
 injecting the processed pre-mist fuel into the compressed air during a restricted defined window close to UDP of the main cylinder, with a strictly defined phase; and
